<p id=”par-1_90″>Layla Taylor rose to fame on <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/hulu-shuts-down-production-of-the-secret-lives-of-mormon-wives.html/”><em>The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives</em>.</a> While fans have watched much of her life play out on TV, apparently there are some things she’d rather share <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/the-secret-lives-of-mormon-wives-season-5-cut-short-whitney-leavitt-exits.html/”>before season 5 </a>of the famed series premieres. Taylor recently sat down for a podcast interview and revealed that something major has shifted in her dating life. She is now dating a new woman and has come out as bisexual, a secret she previously kept guarded. Let’s take a look back at the reality TV star’s dating history.</p>

<p id=”par-2_62″>Layla Taylor is just 25 years old, but that hasn’t stopped her from having a robust romantic life thus far. When fans first met her, Taylor was fresh out of a marriage, having separated from her husband of three years, Clayton Wessell. Taylor and Wessell married in 2019, when Taylor was just 19. The couple split in 2022, after welcoming two sons.</p>

<p id=”par-3_42″>Taylor and Wessell were no longer together when she signed on for <em>The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives</em>, but the split was still a storyline, with Taylor throwing a funeral-themed divorce party on the show. The couple finalized their divorce in 2025.</p>

<p id=”par-4_60″>While Taylor was busy legally ending her marriage, she didn’t stop trying to find a romantic partner — and she was seemingly successful, too. During her time on <em>The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives</em>, she introduced fans to two different men. First, she dated Cameron Jolly. The rocky romance ended pretty quickly, and Layla insisted she felt used by him.</p>
<p id=”par-5_59″>Although she was upset by how the relationship ended and how quickly Cameron moved on, she did the same. She linked up with Mason McWhorter a short time later. That relationship had slightly more staying power, but it also ended relatively recently. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/mormon-wives-fans-rally-layla-taylor-tearful-breakup-reveal.html/”>Taylor announced the breakup</a> in February 2026, claiming she and Mason discovered they were on “different paths.”</p>

<p id=”par-6_119″>With <em>The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives</em> on hiatus at the moment, Layla Taylor didn’t want to wait to share more big news. She’s actively dating again, and has found a special woman. Taylor revealed her relationship status and sexuality update on Jay Shetty’s podcast, <a href=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWdo5rsuW70″><em>On Purpose</em>.</a> During the in-depth chat with Shetty, she explained that she felt pressured to suppress her sexuality because of her religious background and the community she was raised in. She said that, at the time, she downplayed her interest in women, but was ready to fully embrace her feelings now. The admission comes as Pride Month wraps up. And while Layla gushed about her new partner, she is keeping their identity under wraps.</p>
